About our founder
As Director, James works within the Ballymoss Consulting Group across Australia and New Zealand. With over twenty years of global recruitment experience, James has a history of building successful start-up teams across the globe, establishing highly successful specialist teams in the UK, Australia and New Zealand. Priding himself on his honesty and professionalism to colleagues, candidates and clients alike, he enjoys utilising his global experience to add real value to all parties involved.
James founded Ballymoss Consulting with the business aim — and will always remain — to deliver personal and strong long-lasting relationship-based results in a forever growing and less personable world.
Originally from the UK and having lived in South Africa, James first started his career in recruitment in 2005 working in England within the highly competitive London recruitment market. He moved to Australia and began working the Australasian market in 2011 and has not looked back since. In his downtime, he enjoys spending his time with the pride of his world, his two young girls Daisy and Maisie, and going for walks with his dog Brutus.
When he is not repeating his Latin American travel stories, amongst his interests he enjoys making the most of the local beaches, playing and watching sport (James still pretends he can play football and tennis at a decent level), and regularly indulges his inner nerd through movies, books and conventions.
The Story Behind the Name
Ballymoss is the name of the first house James's parents bought when he was a child and is in honour of his late father. A railway enthusiast, the name Ballymoss is one given to a premium locomotive and after a thoroughbred racehorse of the time.
It also mirrors the vision of the business where quality, speed and striving to be top-class in their field is non-negotiable.
Personal Service in a Less Personable World
